Portrays the life and career of this Italian husband and wife duo of actors and
playwrights, who are best known for their satirical and politically radical theater
presentations. When Dario Fo received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1997, he shared
the honor with his wife. Their work was censored for more than seventeen years in Italy
and they were twice denied U.S. entry visas on political grounds. The video features
performance excerpts from classic Dario Fo plays such as Mistero Buffo and Accidental
Death of an Anarchist, plus interviews with Fo and Rame, and numerous theatrical
colleagues and associates, both here and abroad, including Robert Brustein and Robert
Orchard of the American Repertory Theatre.
